Ford won't win that.

There's no way an Italian court (last time I checked Scuderia Ferrari doesn't do any business in the US) is going to rule in favor of Ford over Ferrari for a name that has virtually no marketing crossover.

Not to mention Ferrari and Ford are probably the two best known monikers in the world... their product lines are well known even to the layperson. I'm pretty sure no one is going to get confused by the name of a one-off F1 car that will be run for 10 months this year with an American pickup truck.
